In a crisis, Thalassa quickly tossed the tray aside and her entire body fell into Lysander's arms.
Her face happened to land on his.
With firm skin, the man's face was hot to the touch.
Thalassa was already flustered, feeling the warmth on his face made her heart beat even faster.
In her confusion, she tried to stand up. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to."
She grabbed his suit collar trying to stand up, but her wrist was caught by a big hand.
His calloused hand gave off a threatening warmth as it tightly gripped Thalassa's wrist.
She felt like she was under his control, and it was suffocating.
Thalassa struggled helplessly, trying to pull her hand free. "Mr. Sinclair, I really didn't mean to."
Lysander grabbed her waist and pulled her onto his lap with his other hand.
"Lysander is such a bully!" Alaric started to jeer, laughing heartily.
Richard and Ethan immediately stood up. They knew that once Lysander got really angry, it would be too late to run away.
Lysander's icy gaze swept towards Alaric. "Seems like your tongue needs to be cut off with a scalpel, right?"
Alaric was stunned and quickly followed Richard and Ethan out of the room. "I misunderstood. Don't be angry, Lysander. I'm leaving right now. I didn't say anything, and I didn't see anything."
The men hurriedly left with their dates.
Alaric even came back to close the door for them.
In the large room, only Thalassa and Lysander were left.
One of his hands gripped her wrist, the other held her waist, and she was still sitting on his lap, tightly held in his arms.
She could clearly feel his strong heartbeat.
Thalassa was becoming more and more scared, her heart pounding.
"Mr. Sinclair, we aren't anything to each other, and you shouldn't do this," Thalassa said, trying to pull her hand free, but she failed.
